Pig Latin Translator

Hey Scratchers,

I have made the best Single-Word Enlgish to Pig Latin Translator on Scratch. Check it out, and tell me what you think!

(v1.2.0)

THANKS FOR GETTING ME FRONT PAGED GUYS!!!

Coming Soon!

You will be able to translate compound words!

Updates in v1.2.0:

No matter how many consonants a word starts with, it will now correctly move all of the starting consonants to the back (ex. yyyyessss is translated to essss-yyyyay). Before this update, I incorrectly assumed the most consonants a word can start with is three. (I still think this is true, but you never know.)

Updates in v1.1.0:

You can no longer play in flash. I decided to do this because, when my script played in flash, it made the translated word look 'spaced apart.' I have been informed the is a flash bug, and it has been reported (ex. atch-scray looked like a t c h - s c r a y).

Features

Can translate words that start with vowels both ways (ex. the word another will be translated another-way, AND another-ay)

You can translate ANY word, no matter how long it is.

Can detect if you typed in nothing.

Can detect if you have typed in a number and/or included a number in your word.

Can detect if you've typed in a consonant (ex. b,c,d,etc,...) and will translate it correctly (b-ay, c-ay, d-ay, etc,...)

Can detect if you typed in a word that starts with qu- and will correctly move the consonant cluster to the end of the word (ex. question is translated to estion-quay)

Can detect if the word you typed starts with 0-3 consonants, and will correctly translate it (ex. scratch is translated to atch-scray)

Recognizes "y" as a vowel when it is not the first word of the letter, and correctly translates it. (ex. psychology is translated to ychology-psay)

Thanks! To be honest, I didn't even know I could make a script this long.
